Attacks on U-462 during this patrol
8 Mar 1943
At 14.51 hrs the British submarine HMS Ursula (N 59) (Lt A.R. Profit, DSC, RN) fired a spread of four torpedoes at a U-boat in position 44°48N, 12°13W. No hits were observed and the attack apparently passed unnoticed. The target was most probably the homebound U-462.
